RUSH: I want to play an audio sound bite for you. This happened yesterday at the White House at a briefing. There is an infobabe working at CBS, and her name is Weijia Jiang, and she is a provocateur. She hates Trump, and she purposely attempts to show Trump up. She asks disrespectful questions. She asks gotcha questions for CBS News, and Trump finally hit back at her yesterday, and then walked out of his own press briefing.

And now people are saying, “This Trump guy, you know what?” The pressure’s getting to him! Trump can’t handle it.”

RUSH: All right. So she’s in there wearing a mask. She took the mask off so that everybody watching would know that she’s ChiCom. And then she said, “Sir, why are you asking that question of me? Why are you asking that question of me?” As though Trump’s some kind of a racist. She’s trying to portray him as a racist and a bigot by mentioning China.

But the lesson to be learned in this is not that, because that’s typical left-wing behavior. This babe is ChiCom. She’s sitting there practicing identity politics. Trump happens to say, “You should ask China for the answer to your question.” She gets personally offended thinking that Trump has insulted her?

These people can’t get past the notion this isn’t about them. At any rate, so Trump points out — and he had a chart yesterday pointing out — that we have more testing done than any other country in the world and that we’ve been ramping up or testing, and we are running rings around the rest of the world.

And she says, “Why does that matter? Why is this a global competition to you?”
